Texas State has hired West Virginia offensive coordinator Jake Spavital as its new head coach, Texas State athletics announced on Wednesday. 

Toshua Leavitt and Brooke Holle haven’t missed a free throw all year.

An 11-2 start for Portland wasn’t enough to slow down the Bobcats. Not even close.

Zenarae Antoine knew what her team needed to work on.

Texas State already knew it was going to its first NCAA tournament since 2013, but that didn’t mean the Bobcats weren’t anxious to find out who and where they would be playing in the first round. 

Bryan London II joked with his teammates that this has been the longest week ever. 

And it’s been long. 

One of the nice things about holidays is that you get a day off to relax and enjoy visiting friends.

Texas State raced by USC Upstate, 82-50, on Friday inside the Chiles Center at the Portland Classic in Portland. 

After falling 63-45 to Round Rock Westwood last week, taking silver second place at the Champion Classic, the Lady Rattlers have bounced back with two big wins of their own. 

Texas State rallied from a halftime deficit to defeat Cal Poly, 54-42, on Wednesday at the Portland Classic inside the Chiles Center in Portland, Oregon. 

Former Texas State head coach Everett Withers used to ask his players this question about what legacy they wanted to leave. 

“What do you want on your football tombstone?” 

Celie Contreras always wanted to be a Rattler.

Actually, she just wanted to be like her older sister, Carlie. But Carlie was a Rattler, so Celie wanted to be a Rattler, too.

Here are some sidebars to the main pursuit stories.

San Marcos senior middle blocker Shyeann Lampkin was named to the 26-6A All-District second team, head coach Michelle Moreno announced last week.

The first quarter was a defensive clinic. 

The Trojans found their sweet spot.

A.J. Krawczyk says it would take him a couple days to express how he feels about Everett Withers. 

Texas State’s mission was simple this season.
